Checkbox.onclick — the handler invoked when a checkbox is selected

Availability

Synopsis

<input type="checkbox" onclick="handler"> 
checkbox.onclick

Description

The onclick property of a Checkbox object refers to an event handler function that is invoked when the user clicks on the checkbox. See HTMLElement.onclick for complete details. Note, however, that Checkbox.onclick has been supported since JavaScript 1.0, unlike the generalized HTMLElement.onclick handler.
